Twin Peaks S2E14: Double Play
On episode 22 of Really Weird Stuff, we're discussing Twin Peaks Season 2, Episode 14: "Double Play". This episode was written by Harley Peyton and directed by Uli Edel (Body of Evidence). It's best known as the one with a whole lot of time spent on the three most intolerable plots (James & Evelyn, Little Nicky, & Ben Horne's Civil War re-enactment), but it also delivers a very compelling horror vignette when Leo attacks Shelly in their perpetually under-construction home. Special guest Chris Brugos joins us to explore such mysteries as:
HOW can Windom carry so much literal dead weight without any help?
DO Ed and Norma know you can divorce someone BEFORE they go to jail or lose their mind?
WHAT should Ben have re-enacted instead of the Civil War?
PLUS: A full deconstruction of the "Asian Man Killed!!" news article prop!!
